I am banging my head trying to figure out this “Value out of range 10008″ error, as mentioned here. But I can’t seem to reproduce the error on any of my sites, so could someone who is having the problem help out?

How? Well, by going into Plugins in WordPress - and then choosing Edit WordBay. Find the section that says:

$url = $rssurl .
‘&siteId=’ .
$first_siteID .
‘&sacur=’ .
$currency .
‘&salic=’ .
$first_location .
‘&satitle=’ .
$searchterms .
$first_otherparams .
‘&sabdlo=’ .
$first_minbids .
‘&afepn=’ .
$first_campid .
‘&customid=’ .
$first_customID .
‘&frpp=’ .
$first_maxitems .
‘&sacat=’ .
$sacat.
‘&saprclo=’.
$first_minprice.
‘&saprchi=’.
$first_maxprice;

Directly on the next line to this add the line:

echo $url;

and hit Update file.

Now when you reload the offending page you should get a big long URL appearing, beginning with “http://rss.api.ebay.com…“. Please copy/paste this as a comment here and let’s see if I can figure out why it’s causing problems.

By the way, once you have done that you can delete the line “echo $url;” and Update again and everything will be as before. If something really goes wrong (don’t do it if you are not sure) then copy the WordBay.php file from the latest plugin zip back into the wp-content/plugins/wordbay directory of your WordPress installation and everything should be fine and dandy.

I hope this will help solve this problem, which seems to be a result of some change to the feed parameters, since it wasn’t happening before to this extent… Thanks.
